The Southerners

Description

***Stretching from the early 1900s to World War I,*** this novel's setting roams from the bright glitter of Atlanta Society to the grime of cotton mills, from the quiet of the peaceful countryside to the violent cries of Atlanta race rioters. **It's a piece of history seldom talked about,** and it's written in that lovely, old-fashioned, eloquent English language that is so quickly disappearing.***--Goodreads member, Jessica (Aug 06, 2012), rated it 5 of 5 stars) ''...it was amazing''***

Description

Jodi (Jan 10, 2012) rated it 4 of 5 stars - really liked it: I picked this book off the shelf knowing nothing about it other than it has something to do with the south. Before reading it, I had checked out the reviews on here was a bit apprehensive. The star ratings were not very high. Despite this, I started the book and am glad I did! The Southerners follows the life of Jessica Kildare through life's twists and turns. I truly enjoyed Lee's writing! Stephanie (Nov 04, 2014) it was amazing: I picked up "The Southerners" for free at a local library to use for one of my drawings on book pages ( See the drawing here). When I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down! It's a wonderful narrative through the life of Jessica as she experiences life in the south, in the early 1900s. Jessica experiences lost, love, adventure, concern, pain, and through all the twists and turns, it ends rather perfect. I highly recommend.
